The Tanqua Kuru Bicycle Race goes beyond traditional biking events and invites riders to delve into the heart of the Tankwa Karoo for an unforgettable two-day gravel biking experience covering 170 km. The event prioritises the rider’s experience and connection with nature with a route featuring surprising installations that offer riders respite and fun, including beach setups and pop-up energy stations with fresh goods. The race also offers two routes on day 1, a long 130 km route or 55 km. Day 2 is the same for all entries, a 55km ride through the park to complete the experience. After a challenging day, riders retreat to comfortable tents equipped with proper beds, linen, duvets, lights, and even electric blankets. Showers with hot water and flushing toilets provide a touch of luxury. The race offers a pop-up restaurant, bar, and exploration of permanent art installations at The Tankwa Tented Camp.
